The Classics Custom Extreme Metal Ride Cymbal by Meinl is a unique ride with a huge bell for a penetrating and loud sound. High-pitched, glassy ping sound with a slightly trashy undertone. Perfect for fast ride patterns.

This is a great ride but you have to understand, this ride is thick and has a huge bell. You can't bash it like a lot of people are doing in the heavier music scene right now. I personally think for the price you get an amazing metal ride! perfect for blast beats. This beast cannot open up though but that's understandable once you hold it. It's thick but that's just what i need because i am a heavy hitter. Over all, with a price tag like this you get a great alternative to meinl's mb 20 ride that a lot of tech metal drummers are using.
